In that sense, NoC architectures should be properly designed so as to provide efficient traffic engineering, as well as QoS support. Routing algorithm choice in conjunction with other parameters, such as network size and topology, traffic features (time and spatial distribution), as well as packet injection rate, packet size, and buffering capability, are all equivalently critical for designing a robust NoC architecture, on the grounds of traffic engineering and QoS provision. In this paper, a thorough numerical investigation is achieved by taking into consideration the criticality of selecting the proper routing algorithm, in conjunction with all the other aforementioned parameters. This is done via implementation of four routing evaluation traffic scenarios varying each parameter either individually, or as a set, thus exhausting all possible combinations, and making compact decisions on proper routing algorithm selection in NoC architectures. It has been shown that the simplicity of a deterministic routing algorithm such as XY, seems to be a reasonable choice, not only for random traffic patterns but also for non-uniform distributed traffic patterns, in terms of delay and throughput for 2D mesh NoC systems.展开更多

文摘For the purpose of exploring the factors affecting injury severity of children and adolescents involved in traffic crashes in Greece,disaggregate crash data including 13,431 involving children and adolescents from all regions of Greece for the period 2006–2015 were utilized.In order to identify factors affecting injury severity and account for potential unobserved heterogeneity,a series of mixed logit models were utilized.To explore and address potential temporal instability of crash-related risk factors,the likelihood ratio test was applied.Results indicated that night crashes,crashes outside urban areas as well as crashes involving bicycles or powered-two-wheelers are associated with higher injury severity of children and adolescents.Interestingly,crashes involving pedestrians are associated with lower injury severity than head-on collisions and run-off-road collisions with fixed objects.Side and sideswipe crashes also result in lower injury severities.The likelihood ratio test indicated that crash-related factors are instable when comparing the models utilizing data before and after 2010 respectively.This study contributes to the current knowledge in the field,as to the best of our knowledge this is the first study that addresses unobserved heterogeneity when analyzing child and adolescent injury severity.Overall,the findings of this study provide useful insights and could assist in unveiling crash risk factors and prioritize programs and measures to promote road safety of children and adolescents.
文摘In this paper,the concept of environmental capacity is developed to identify a convenient maximum traffic volume which will not reduce the life quality of residents.The presented method investigates the idea of traffic capacity under environmental constraints by calculating the maximum number of vehicles allowed on roads based on acceptable levels of air and noise pollutants.In this study,the permissible noise pollution level and permissible levels of CO and NOxpollution are considered for determining environmental capacity.Results show the significant difference between environmental capacity and functional traffic capacity,introduced by the highway capacity manual(HCM)as a conventional method for estimating functional capacity.Thus,maximum allowed pollution is considered a constraint on a vehicle flow rate,which shows the proper traffic flow for selected streets in Tehran,Iran’s capital.The paper concludes that traffic capacity under noise and air pollution constraints is much less(approximately one-fourth and one-eighth for noise and air pollution respectively)than the current highway capacity estimated using HCM guidelines.Therefore,to save the cities like Tehran from noise and air pollution,traffic flows should be limited to the level of environmental capacity by implementing some travel demand management(TDM)policies like road pricing.

文摘Based on the four-element model,this paper reviewed the important research progress in vehicle platoon,compared the advantages and disadvantages of different models in each element longitudinally,and summarized the linkage between each element horizontally.The stability criteria are briefly reviewed from three dimensions:local stability,string stability,and traffic flow stability.The impact of communication delay on vehicle platoon is quantitatively summarized from two aspects:the variation of controller gains and the variation of headway time values.Aiming at the inevitable communication delay in vehicle platoon,the compensation strategies are analyzed from five levels.(1)Optimizing the communication network structure.(2)Reconstructing acceleration information.(3)Tuning controller gains.(4)Constructing a multi-branch selection structure.(5)Improving the controller.The results show that,although these compensation strategies can alleviate the negative impact of communication delay to a certain extent,they also have some defects such as difficulty in adapting to complex and various real road conditions,poor accuracy and real-time performance,insufficient security,and limited application scenarios.It is necessary to further improve the accuracy and real-time performance of the device,design an encrypted and scalable network architecture to ensure communication security and adaptability,and conduct further real vehicle testing.

文摘Road traffic safety should be evaluated throughout the entire life-cycle of road design,operation,maintenance,and expansion construction.However,traditional methods for evaluating road traffic safety based on traffic accidents and conflict technology are limited by their inability to account for the complex environmental factors involved.To address this issue,a new road safety evaluation method has emerged that is based on driving behavior.Because drivers’behaviors may vary depending on the driving environment and their personal characteristics,evaluating road safety from the perspective of driver behavior has become a popular research topic.This paper analyzes current research trends and mainstream journals in the field of road safety evaluation of driving behavior.Additionally,it reviews the three most commonly used driving behavior data collection methods,and compares the advantages and disadvantages of each.The paper proposes the main application scenarios of road safety evaluation methods based on driving behavior,such as road design,evaluation of the effects of road appurtenances,and intelligent highways.Furthermore,the paper summarizes a driving behavior index system based on vehicle data,driver’s physiological and psychological data,and driver’s subjective questionnaire data.A comprehensive evaluation method based on the fusion of each index system is presented in detail.Finally,the paper points out current research problems and the future development direction of the road safety evaluation method based on driving behavior.

文摘Identification of accident black spots has gained tremendous popularity among road agencies and safety specialists for evaluating and subsequently enhancing road traffic safety.However,there is still limited understanding of the internal relationship between black spots and microscopic vehicle kinetic parameters.To address this gap,this paper describes a project that was undertaken using the real-time tire force data(kinetic response)obtained from road experiments on Wenli Expressway.First,factor analysis was applied to extracted three independent indicators(power-braking,handling stability,and ride comfort)from seven original kinetic indicators with multiple collinearities.Afterward,the main indicators were given vehicle kinetic meaning by analyzing the characteristics of original indicators associated with them.A compelling correlation was established among kinetic parameters,vehicle running qualities,and accident risk.Additionally,an integrated evaluation framework was established to identify accident black spots based on applying ordered logit models and PLS-entropy-TOPSIS approaches.The recognition results exhibited that the overall recognition accuracy obtained by the latter was found to be comparable to that achieved using the previous one.The compound evaluation model proposed in this paper has been proven to present many advantages for black spot identification.It is evidently clear from the findings that the vehicle kinetic parameters have significant correlations with road accident risk.This paper could provide some insightful knowledge for identifying and preventing the black spots from ameliorating traffic safety.

文摘Segment routing has been a novel architecture for traffic engineering in recent years.However,segment routing brings control overheads,i.e.,additional packets headers should be inserted.The overheads can greatly reduce the forwarding efficiency for a large network,when segment headers become too long.To achieve the best of two targets,we propose the intelligent routing scheme for traffic engineering(IRTE),which can achieve load balancing with limited control overheads.To achieve optimal performance,we first formulate the problem as a mapping problem that maps different flows to key diversion points.Second,we prove the problem is nondeterministic polynomial(NP)-hard by reducing it to a k-dense subgraph problem.To solve this problem,we develop an ant colony optimization algorithm as improved ant colony optimization(IACO),which is widely used in network optimization problems.We also design the load balancing algorithm with diversion routing(LBA-DR),and analyze its theoretical performance.Finally,we evaluate the IRTE in different real-world topologies,and the results show that the IRTE outperforms traditional algorithms,e.g.,the maximum bandwidth is 24.6% lower than that of traditional algorithms when evaluating on BellCanada topology.

文摘Recently,the development and application of lane line departure warning systems have been in the market.For any of the systems,the key part of lane line tracking,lane line identification,or lane line departure warning is whether it can accurately and quickly detect lane lines.Since 1990 s,they have been studied and implemented for the situations defined by the good viewing conditions and the clear lane markings on road.After then,the accuracy for particular situations,the robustness for a wide range of scenarios,time efficiency and integration into higher-order tasks define visual lane line detection and tracking as a continuing research subject.At present,these kinds of lane marking line detection methods based on machine vision and image processing can be divided into two categories:the traditional image processing and semantic segmentation(includes deep learning)methods.The former mainly involves feature-based and model-based steps,and which can be classified into similarity-and discontinuity-based ones;and the model-based step includes different parametric straight line,curve or pattern models.The semantic segmentation includes different machine learning,neural network and deep learning methods,which is the new trend for the research and application of lane line departure warning systems.This paper describes and analyzes the lane line departure warning systems,image processing algorithms and semantic segmentation methods for lane line detection.
